Introduction  Sexually transmitted infections are commonly tested for in the emergency department (ED), but diagnostic test results are often unavailable during the clinical encounter.  Methods  We retrospectively reviewed health records of 3,132 men ≥18 years that had an emergency department visit in northeast Ohio between April 18, 2014 and March 7, 2017. All subjects underwent testing for Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis. Independent t-tests and chi-square analyses were performed as well as multivariable regression analysis.  Results  On univariable analysis, men with N gonorrhoeae and/or C trachomatis, compared with uninfected men, were younger (25.9 vs 32.4 years), more likely to be of Black race (91.7% vs 85.6%), less likely to be married (3.7% vs 10.2%), less likely to arrive to the ED by ambulance or police (1.7% vs 4.1%), and more likely to be diagnosed with a urinary tract infection (8.3% vs 3.7%), to be treated for gonorrhea and chlamydia in the ED (84.6% vs 54.9%), and to have higher emergency severity index (ESI) scores (3.8 vs 3.6) (P ≤ .03 for all). On urinalysis, men infected with N gonorrhoeae and/or C trachomatis had significantly more white blood cells (55.1 vs 20.9); more mucus (1.3 vs 1.2); higher leukocyte esterase (1.5 vs .4); fewer squamous epithelial cells (.6 vs 1.4); higher urobilinogen (1.1 vs .8); higher bilirubin (.09 vs .05); and more protein (.4 vs .3) (P ≤ .04).  Conclusions  Demographic and urinalysis findings can be associated with an increased odds of men being infected with N gonorrhoeae and/or C trachomatis.
